This was not mentioned in the ~Official~ Norfolk Bucket List, but it was an integral part of birthday weekend 2k16 and deserves a post/review (I don't really know what I'm doing, just go with it).
First of all, I'm pretty sure that the Norfolk Tap Room is in an old bank building, so the venue is absolutely beautiful. High ceilings, exquisite plaster and stucco work, gorgeous wooden bar. There are high-top tables, regular tables, and lovely, comfortable booths.
The menu when we arrived was restricted to simply the late-night options, which featured pub fair with some great twists. The bacon and crab dip was to. die. for. 10/10 would do again. And next time, I wouldn't share (though it was amply sized to be shared, trust me).
If you happen to be a beer connoisseur, the Norfolk Tap Room would be akin to Mecca; their menu features everything from local pints to imported brews. Our group went a little on the harder side, sipping cosmos, cucumber martinis, and mixed tropical rum drinks. All were delicious and reasonably priced.
They also had live music that complimented the atmosphere perfectly. Just a man, his voice, and his guitar. No loud band, so you can have friendly conversations while enjoying a drink or two. Dress code ranged from jeans and tees to dresses-- there was actually a wedding party there celebrating in their wedding attire.
Bathrooms are a little on the interesting side, but, honestly, that doesn't factor much into my bar experience.
In conclusion: excellent experience that will be repeated in the future. The end. Thanks for reading!
